Abstract

 

High-fidelity SpCas9 variants (eSpCas9 and SpCas9-HF1) have been engineered to reduce off-target effects. We found that changes in guide RNA length induced significant reductions in the editing activities of SpCas9 variants in plant cells. Single guide RNAs harboring precise, perfectly matched 20-nucleotide guide sequences are necessary for high on-target editing activities of eSpCas9 and SpCas9-HF1. Precise 20-nucleotide guide sequences derived from tRNA–sgRNA precursors enable robust on-target editing by these variants with enhanced specificity. Our work reveals an effective way of enhancing the use of the high-fidelity SpCas9 nucleases for efficient and precise genome engineering.
